Any line with no slope is parallel to the x-axis y-axis *line y = x

1 answer:

3 0

The x-axis.

In the form Y = mx + b

m is the slope, so no slope means that my is zero so that means x is zero also.

So you would end up with

y = b so that means y will always be that value and the only thing that will change is the x value. This will create a horizontal lines that is parallel to the x-axis

Look at the picture.

1.
$y=mx+b\\\\m=\dfrac{9}{3}=3\\\\b=4\\\\\boxed{f(x)=3x+4}$

2.
$f(x)=-2x+3\\\\for\ x=-2\to f(-2)=-2\cdot(-2)+3=4+3=7\to(-2;\ 7)\\for\ x=-1\to f(-1)=-2\cdot(-1)+3=2+3=5\to(-1;\ 5)\\for\ x=0\to f(0)=-2\cdot0+3=3\to(0;\ 3)\\for\ x=1\to f(1)=-2\cdot1+3=-2+3=1\to(1;\ 1)$

3.
$y=mx+b\\\\m=\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5\\\\b=-3\\\\\boxed{f(x)=0.5x-3}$
$for\ x=-6\to f(-6)=-6\\for\ x=-2\to f(-2)=-4\\for\ x=0\to f(0)=-3\\for\ x=6\to f(6)=0$

Write the equation of a line parallel to y= 2x + 2 that passes through the point (-1,-7). Show your work.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=2x-5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

Parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore if given line is

$y=2x+2$

then the slope of our line is $m=2$ .

We have the equation:

$y=2x+b$

The line passes through (-1, -7). Put the coordinsted pf the point to the equation:

$-7=2(-1)+b$

$-7=-2+b$ <em>add 2 to both sides</em>

$-5=b\to b=-5$

Finally:

$y=2x-5$

Helpppp pleaseeee!!!!

I could be wrong but I think you solve for y then graph it then find where the lines intersect. You’re using ed puzzle though so just rewatch the part of the video and you’ll get the answer.

The line passes through the points ( 7, -7) and ( 6, -5) a. y = -2x + 7 c. y = -2x - 7 b. y = 2x - 21 d. y = 2x - 7

ollegr [7]

Slope = (-5+7)/(6 - 7) = -2

y = mx + b
b = y - mx
b = -7 - (-2)(7)
b = -7 + 14
b = 7

equation
y = -2x + 7

answer
<span>a. y = -2x + 7</span>
